Ingredients

1 cup uncooked rice or 1 cup uncooked orzo pasta
1 medium cucumber, seeded and diced
1 large ripe tomatoes, diced, with juice
1 red bell pepper, diced
1/2 medium red onion, thinly sliced
10 kalamata olives, pitted and sliced
2 cups cooked chickpeas or 2 cups canned chick-peas, drained and rinsed
1/4 cup minced fresh parsley
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon lemon juice (or more)
2 garlic cloves, minced (can press as well)
salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste
romaine lettuce leaf, ripped into bite-sized pieces
2 ounces feta cheese, crumbled (optional)

Steps:

Cook couscous, rice, or pasta according to package directions. Fluff couscous with fork, if using. If using rice, make sure all liquid is absorbed so the rice is dry, not sticky. If using orzo, rinse hot pasta in cool water and drain well.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine cucumber, tomato, pepper, onion, olives, chickpeas, and parsley.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk olive oil, lemon juice, and garlic. Season to taste with salt and freshly-ground black pepper.
Add dressing to vegetable mixture and toss well.
On a serving dish, arrange lettuce leaves, mound the couscous, rice, or pasta in center and cover with mixed vegetables.
Sprinkle with feta, if using, and serve.

Place the potatoes in a large wide pot and add water to cover by 2 inches (5 cm). Bring to a boil.
Season generously with salt. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 20 to 25 minutes, until the potatoes are fork-tender. Remove from the heat and gently drain the potatoes in a colander set in the sink. Rinse under cold running water until cool enough to handle, then cut into large chunks.
Transfer the potatoes to a large bowl. Add the tomatoes, onions, and cucumber. Toss gently to combine. Place the fish fillets on top.
Make the dressing by whisking together the olive oil, vinegar (use more or less to your liking), and oregano in a small bowl until well combined. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
